Is your ROOT compiled with debug information?

Subject: [ROOT] problem using gdb with ROOT

Dear all,

        I have some problems running gdb with ROOT. First, if I simply call:

gdb root

It does not work, and I get:

(gdb) r
Starting program: /Users/zampolli/SOFT/ROOT/v5-33-02b/bin/root
Reading symbols for shared libraries .+++++.......... done

ROOT 5.33/03 (tags/v5-33-02b@43822, Apr 22 2012, 23:58:59 on macosx64)

CINT/ROOT C/C++ Interpreter version 5.18.00, July 2, 2010
Type ? for help. Commands must be C++ statements.
Enclose multiple statements between { }.

Program received signal SIGUSR1, User defined signal 1.
0x00007fff87939932 in select$DARWIN_EXTSN ()
(gdb)

Any idea?

Second, if I run gdb with AliRoot (which works), and try to set a breakpoint to TObjArray.cxx:567 (for example), the breakpoint does not work, while breakpoints with AliRoot do.
The ROOT version is v5-33-02b, and I am running with two different Mac (iMac and MacBook) with SnowLeopard.

Thanks for any hint.

        Best Regards,

                Chiara
